hi guys,

i just had an intercooler and electronic boost controller installed on my r33 this week and on friday she went on the dyno to get the mixtures right at the boost setting.

So far the one and only boost setting (atm) is 8psi and the car made 215HP at the wheels. However, i arrived a little later :Oops: ,and they did another power run and we got 210.4 HP. I was happy at this result as it is relatively low boost on an AUTO R33 (93 model) Gts25t.

I will be going back soon and we will boost it to around 10-11psi as that would be the max i would probably want to go with stock turbo and see if i can get around 230HP. Then take her to WSID :aroused:

The mods on her are:

- Greddy v-spl intercooler kit

- blitz dual sbc spec s

- k&n pod filter (need to box it up so it doesnt such hot air)

- custom 3.5 inch exhaust with 4inch dump pipe with a twin 3inch hi flow cat setup

the cosmetic add ons are side skirts and rear pods, GTR front bar, lowered kmac springs, 18inch rims and my boom boom system :)

my dyno graph had a little dip in it at around 150kph but was overall was a fairly good curve. What you guys think?

sorry, i should also add that me mechanic said that the drop was due to a stutter and suggested that i get the spitfire coilpack to fix the probelm for good. However i probably jsut do the easy thing and gap the sparkies to 0.8mm as its still at the standard gap.

Go to 0.8mm, you could run 1.2bar=16psi for short runs with the mods you have.  I was doing that with my stock turbo [not ceramic].  Is the ecu still std???, 180km limiter etc?

yeh still a stock ecu

twin 3" hi flow cat set up, i thought it would have been just as good to get a 3 or 3.5" turbo back exhaust with a single hi flo cat...

perhaps, but the guy that did the exhaust did the same system for a 32 GTR and the results were fantastic, so he did the same system to mine and i was very happy with the end product.

Yeah that dip will be at about 5000rpm where the stock computer dumps in extra fuel you would see it if you had AFR plotted on the printout.

It just gets bigger when you up the boost more. Mine is running 10psi. This run was in 3rd gear.

Speaking of boost, Don't try more than about 10-11psi on a stock ceramic RB25 turbo unless you want an excuse to hi-flo it.

Hey mate i have the exact same car i have a blitz front mount ,sbc id 3, 3.5inch exst and a k&n fillter at first i had a apexi safc 2 as well which was pushing 169 rwkw at 11 psi (I still have the safc 2 if interested) then i upgraded that to a uni chip computer now it has 200rwkw at 9.5 psi i have been told i need some new coil packs and injectors before i up the boost cause it can't handle the power but for an auto it goes alright dont get a blow off valve it made mine run like crap idling up and down. i could of put the $500 from the blow of value towards some injectors !!

Yeh i am keeping the standard bov as i dont see any need to change it unless its leaking (which it isn't)

thats an impressive power output you have at that boost level, but i didnt think that there were ecu's from uni chip for the r33...guess i was wrong. How is the gearbox hadnling the power, are the gear changes any different from before the uni chip?

PM sent about the safc II.

All stock GTS skyline turbos are ceramic(turbine). From the R32 to the R34. The series 2 33's have a composite compressor aswell as a ceramic turbine and give the best response by far but are prone to breaking blades.

There is a uni chip for the auto skyline but not all models can have it i got mine done by dyno motive in melbourne it was very good if i can find the dyno run i will post it up on here there is no difference in the gear changing or anything they done a top job all only thing i realy notice is that i need a shift kit now cause if i manualuly change the gears it aint quick enuff but yeah i am very happy with it. if you wanna know prices and stuff pm and i can tell u

    • Im not entirely sure exactly what or where its leaking from, he started to pull the boots to swap to my new tie rods + ends and it just vomited fluid, so he closed em up up, swapped the rod ends to the old rods and let me know so I can figure a solution out, im guessing its all origional as as I passed 103k miles earlier this year im sure its just in need of a full overhual/rebuild anyways.    If i could just yank it off and be good it wouldn't be an issue to ship it out and wait for the turnaround but the guy I work with doesnt really have space to keep my car for a week or two at a time, would rather drop it off and have a replacement ready to drop in
    • What do you mean by "seals"? Internal hydraulic seals (ie, is it leaking PS fluid?) or the rack boots that close the rack onto the tie-rods? Because the former is a rebuild, and the latter is trivial that you or any nearby mechanic could do. Dunno about the cowl. Just buy what you think is required and get anything else you find/break afterwards. Wing? Dunno. Don't like R33s enough to pay attention to them. Mirror glass is just glass (on the surface that you want to polish). Go for it.
    • Hello! Long time lurker, been using the forums to address concerns and questions from afar for a while but I've struggled to find some answers so I guess its about time I made an account and formally asked some more knowledgeable people, since finding local skyline owners is hard (and shops that are knowledgeable or trustworthy to work on 'rare' cars are non existent out where im at, as skylines are quite uncommon to find in the wild around here). So the main 3 questions I have, 1: Steering rack has blown seals, well.. they kind of hold but they are not sealed properly anymore and as my R33 is my DD, i cant exactly rip the rack out and send it off or attempt to fix myself. As most refurb ones are around $1,100 or more shipped, and I have other things I need to work on around the car, I was seeking clarification on whether an S15 rack will more or less bolt right in, and whether a common mechanic could do any other required work to get it to fit. I ask, as I've found a supplier than can sell a manufactured as oem one for around 400, if not I'll likely order a used one from Jacks JDM, and take a risk on the seals there. The second question i have is that im replacing the front wiper cowl and have planned to buy 4 new clips and a new center clip but wasnt sure if there were any other clips that would also need to get replaced while I was at it. Given im sure any that are there now will simply break when I remove the old cowl... Last thing would be a fairly straight forward question, i think. If I manage (strong if, finding one has proven to be a pain) to find a R33 GTR spoiler/wing will it require much modification to bolt to a S2 R33 GTST? I've read the bolt patterns dont match but otherwise would bolt in, only options I have found with much luck is China stuff on ebay and carbonetics, which has a nice $650 shipping fee... so if anyone has any pointers where a US chap could locate one that would be great Random side question as well, the mirrors as I understand are mirror glass, and as im planning to polish my windows from water spots and surface scratches, i was hopeful cerium oxide would be fine for them too, as my research points to, but clarification is always nice. Any pointers would be appreciated, and while I have scoured the internet for answers if I missed a prior post somewhere that may answer these directly please point me towards it, as i must have simply missed it. I have seen a post here or there that has mentioned it, but I usually get 50-50 answers, or half answers... I dont have a lot of fab experience or mechanic experience, outside of hydraulic and pneumatic stuff I did in the military and with how hard it is to source stuff in the US, id rather not wing it and hemmoraghe money lol. Thanks guys! Sorry for the monumental first post haha
    • Yep, there's a very minor drift left that happens a few seconds after letting go of the steering wheel, but not enough to bother me. Enjoying the car still!
    • Got you mate. Check your email!
